Modified MakeBinOp to no longer produce its name using concatenation and "##".
Doing so prevents emacs tags from working, as well as makes the code extremely

In the prior state, if someone wants to find the definition of "ExprApp" for

hiding in numerous ".h" files, it's really difficult to find. This personally
took me several hours to figure out.
